I didn't mean to use musb_root_disconnect() to replace your
implementation. I suggest to add this call before lowing vbus to let the
core tearing down the numerated devices.

In this case, DP/DM get disconnected before vbus line, so
musb_root_disconnect() gets called in handling the disconnect interrupt
event. I think it is better simulate this in your usecase, which does
not generate disconnect event.
